	University of Connecticut President Michael Hogan's announcement that he will resign to become president of the University of Illinois caught university and state officials by surprise Tuesday.



	University trustees reportedly learned of the resignation only hours before it was publicly announced.



	Hogan is leaving after just three years in office, the shortest tenure for a UConn president since George A. Works resigned in 1930 after one year.

          Mike, we barely got to know you...        

        
                

          

	UConn President Mike Hogan has appeared twice on WNPR's Where We Live, once to talk about the UConn Health Center expansion, which he seems to have gotten, and once when he first got the job, only a few, short years ago.

		We had assumed President Hogan's commitment to UConn was a long term one; it should have been.
